La Grande Chaude, Blanc 2023
Philippe Chatillon
With La Grande Chaude 2023, Philippe Chatillon delivers an artisanal cuvée where Chardonnay, the noble grape of the Jura, finds a chiseled and deeply mineral expression. This organically certified cuvée, classified as AOC Côtes du Jura, comes from a rare and complex terroir: red Lias marls enriched with a dolomite bank – a soft limestone rock – which structures the top of the plot. This unique composition, located in Passenans, gives the wine a natural tension and great aromatic precision.
The 60-year-old vines yield concentrated fruit, which Philippe Chatillon vinifies by direct pressing, without artifice, before two years of aging in old barrels, where the wine slowly builds itself, sheltered from new wood, in a pure logic of respect for life.
The nose opens elegantly with zesty citrus, white flowers, discreet brioche notes, all carried by a prominent chalky minerality. On the palate, the texture is straight, taut, precise, almost saline, with a length that leaves a striking sensation of purity. It is a gastronomic white wine, intense but never heavy, combining the freshness of the Jura with the depth of great Chardonnay.
At the table, La Grande Chaude will enhance grilled fish, creamy poultry, or mushroom risotto. Decant it to allow it time to breathe, serve it between 10 and 12°C, and it can evolve over 5 years.
A great terroir wine, sensitive, lively, which reveals all of Philippe Chatillon's talent in the fine and luminous interpretation of his Jura soils.
Amphore Rouge, 2023
Philippe Chatillon
With Amphore 2023, Philippe Chatillon delivers a rare and unique red cuvée, blending the typicality of the Jura with an ancestral aging method. This certified organic natural wine, classified as Vin de France, comes from a subtle blend of Pinot Noir and Trousseau, two emblematic grape varieties of the Jura, grown on clay-limestone soils and vinified with a spirit of purity and respect for the fruit.
After a short one-week maceration, the wine is aged for two years in amphorae (qvevris), these terracotta jars traditionally used in Georgia. This aging choice allows for slow and natural oxygenation, without the transfer of woody aromas, thus preserving the frankness of the fruit, the floral delicacy, and the complexity of the wine.
On the nose, Amphore 2023 immediately captivates: crisp red fruits, violet, a fresh herbaceous note, and a slightly earthy touch that recalls the very material of the amphora. On the palate, it is a light, fluid, yet structured wine, with a natural tension and a beautiful aromatic persistence. The balance between the finesse of Pinot Noir and the vitality of Trousseau is remarkable, supported by an aging process that acts as a revealer rather than a disguise.
At the table, this vibrant red will accompany grilled red meats, root vegetable dishes, or fine charcuterie. It will express itself fully at around 12 to 14°C, after decanting, and can be kept for 5 to 10 years.
With this cuvée, Philippe Chatillon creates an author's red wine, free and inspired, where the terroir of the Jura meets the millennial wisdom of amphora winemaking.
Le Sage Vagnin, White 2023
Philippe Chatillon
Le Sage Vagnin 2023 is a precious, exclusive, and wise vintage. Only 800 bottles are produced each year, all from a small walled vineyard (clos) planted with 65-year-old Savagnin vines, deeply rooted in the grey Jurassic marl. This rarity is the result of the precise and inspired work of Philippe Chatillon, a winemaker sensitive to living things, whose estate is certified organic and located in Arbois, the birthplace of the grape variety.
Vinified with direct pressing and then aged for two years in old barrels, this AOC Arbois white wine stands out for its aromatic purity and balanced roundness. No new wood, no additives: just the grapes, time, and the winemaker's care. The result is a nuanced Savagnin, with a mineral roundness, between tension and sweetness.
The nose is both expressive and delicate: fresh citrus, white peach, acacia blossom, with a subtle mineral touch. On the palate, the texture is round yet taut, with a beautiful length, an elegant saline sensation, and a fresh, floral finish. The wine avoids any heaviness, playing on the perfect balance between the natural richness of the grape variety and the finesse of the terroir.
Le Sage Vagnin will gracefully accompany seafood, aged cheeses like Comté or Bleu de Gex, but also more spicy, oriental, or vegetarian cuisine. Serve between 10 and 12°C, with light decanting, and enjoy now or keep for up to 5 years.
A rare wine, for lovers of finesse and Jura's unique character.
Puits Saint Pierre, White 2023
Philippe Chatillon
The Puits Saint Pierre 2023 cuvée by Philippe Chatillon is a magnificent tribute to Savagnin, the iconic grape variety of the Jura, meticulously crafted with remarkable precision. Sourced from the estate's finest parcel, planted on typical Côtes du Jura marl soils, this natural white wine, certified organic, embodies Jura tradition while asserting a pure, clean, and vibrant style.
The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness then pressed directly, without maceration, to preserve freshness and varietal expression. The wine is then aged for two years in old barrels, without oenological intervention or new wood, allowing for subtle micro-oxygenation that refines the structure and develops aromatic complexity.
On the nose, it's a festival of sensations: dried apricot, delicate honey, a hint of brioche, alpine herbs, and a chalky minerality that hints at the tension on the palate. The palate is direct, dry, taut, with superb acidity that carries the flavors to a long, saline finish. The balance between the subtle richness of the aging and the natural straightforwardness of the grape makes it an excellent gastronomic wine.
Puits Saint Pierre pairs ideally with iodized seafood, aged Comté cheese, or spicy dishes with oriental flavors. Decanting is recommended for it to fully open up. It can be enjoyed now for its purity or aged 5 to 10 years to gain complexity. Serve chilled, between 10 and 12°C.
Philippe Chatillon delivers a deep and sincere wine, both rooted in its terroir and of rare elegance.
Les Nouvelles Blanc 2022
Philippe Chatillon
With his "Les Nouvelles 2022" cuvée, Philippe Chatillon, former director of Domaine de la Pinte and now an independent winemaker, continues to precisely and sincerely express the great terroirs of the Jura, which he has cultivated organically since his beginnings. This 100% Savagnin, from the Arbois appellation, offers a refined interpretation of a grape variety often characterized by oxidative notes, here vinified "ouillé" (fully topped up).
The grapes, grown on Jurassic marl, are directly pressed and then ferment naturally, without the addition of yeasts or other inputs. Two years of aging in old barrels, under "ouillage" (keeping the barrels topped up), allows the wine to develop beautiful complexity without any oxidative notes, in a taut and digestible style. No corrections, no masking: this Savagnin is a pure expression of its place and its vintage.
Upon tasting, the color is clear, golden with green reflections. The nose entices with its floral finesse (white flower, lime blossom), discreet brioche notes, and clear aromas of white peach and chalky minerality. On the palate, it is taut, straight, dry, with a superb length and a saline, almost vibrant finish that calls for food.
A gastronomic wine, it will pair perfectly with freshwater fish, Jura cheeses (aged Comté, Morbier), or exotic and spicy dishes. Serve slightly decanted to allow it to fully open up. Guaranteed to age for 5 to 10 years.
Where?
Nestled in the heart of the Jura vineyards (“sacred mountain” in Celtic), Poligny extends across the first plateau of the Jura massif, about ten kilometers from Arbois. The commune currently has four wineries, including Domaine Philippe Chatillon, established in January 2013. After eighteen years as manager of Domaine de la Pinte (Arbois, Jura), Philippe chose to bring his own vines to life on a well-exposed hill in Passenans, as well as in Arbois on the beautiful hillside of Les Nouvelles. Accompanied by his son Anatole since 2019, Philippe will transfer the entire operation of the estate to him in 2025. As an emeritus professor of sensory analysis, the father emphasizes what he calls “bio-harmony.” Using a crystal harp and singing bowls, he aims to harmonize the wines in the cellar using sound vibrations, with the objective of creating a synergy between human energy and that of nature. In 1990, while already working in the Jura, he treated the vines with an insecticide now banned. “I fell ill and almost died,” he recalls. Deploring the tragic observation of a natural world assassinated by the footprint of the Anthropocene, Philippe is a true fervent defender of healthy, authentic wines from a terroir without artifice, and he now works to produce exclusively so-called natural wine.
Terroir, Soil, Parcels, Grape Varieties
The three and a half hectares of parcels at Domaine Philippe Chatillon root themselves in Jurassic soils, primarily clay-limestone and marl. Eighty-five percent of the vines are white grape varieties, with a strong dominance of Savagnin but also some Chardonnay, while the red grape varieties include Pinot Noir, Trousseau, Poulsard, and Melon à Queue Rouge. Sixty years old, these vines yield a vibrant terroir, producing wines that combine power and finesse.
Cultivation Methods
Sweat, Love, Passion. This could summarize the vineyard work at Domaine Philippe Chatillon. Great respect for the terroir and for the balance of biodiversity is at the heart of the winemaker’s approach. Everything is done to obtain healthy, balanced, and vibrant grapes, truly reflecting the characteristics of the clay-limestone soil, and to produce natural wines without any inputs. No herbicides or synthetic chemical products are used; he prefers to use horn manure, fermented compost tea from algae and mushrooms, or even fenugreek to stimulate soil life, strengthen rooting, and protect crops. Except for the backpack sprayer, machines are prohibited in the vineyards; only the hoe, he confides, “caresses the vine.”
Winemaking
As in the vineyard, the estate uses no chemical inputs in winemaking. Harvesting is entirely manual and performed only at dawn to preserve the freshness of the grapes. Collected in small crates, they arrive whole at the cellar to prevent oxidation. Initially equipped with an old 17th-century cellar, the estate acquired an 18th-century cellar in 2017 and a 19th-century cellar in 2018. As co-inventor of the glass-bottom barrel for better observation of the development of the "voile" (veil) of yellow wine, Philippe ages his grapes in barrels as well as in amphorae. During winemaking, exogenous intervention is extremely limited: no chaptalization, no yeast inoculation, no filtration, no fining. The use of the crystal harp and singing bowls helps to balance the wines through sound vibrations. The wine makes itself, guided only by time, music, and gravity.
The Wines
Certified organic by Ecocert, biodynamic by Demeter, and Vin Méthode Nature, the wines of Domaine Philippe Chatillon reflect the purity and passion that form the very essence of the winemaker's work. On the one hand, the vibrations of the harp shape a vibrant and complex wine that offers a rush of emotions from the very first nose. On the other hand, barrel aging brings energy to red wine and creaminess to white wine, allowing it to effectively convey all the depth and subtlety of the region's soils and grape varieties. Each bottle bears the signature of a winemaker who, beyond the wine, seeks to bring out the brilliance of every pearl of the vine.
